Well,....uh, yeah...let’s go with this.
You’re right. That Duke game meant nothing.
In all honesty, that game was nip and tuck for 42 seconds.
If they came out tomorrow and said TTU threw the game the last 5 minutes, I would not be surprised one bit based how they played.
I think Duke has shown to be a very hard nosed difficult team to beat.
lol!
I just spit my bourbon out. I love it!
Frank, Happy Holidays-Merry Christmas to you and the family. You’re one of the coolest guys on here.
And that’s why they are Texas Tech.....missed their last 11 shots. Ugly game both ways. Moment got too big for the Red Faiders
You do realize TT is ranked 12th....And has the #1 ranked defense per Kenpom? Really good basketball team.

On an offensive charge (player control foul), you don’t shoot free throws. The offensive team loses possession.
Texas Tech has a better rated defense than Virgina. Might be best in country
LOL they couldn't buy a shot until 2 reserves came in to give them their 2 3's. TT played like trash and still could have won. Man the unforced TO's and horrible quick 3's. If dook would have lost to that offensive nightmare they should have dropped out of the top 10. I haven't seen a team play that bad against a top 2 team and be in it until the end. Dook looking pretty regular against a tough nosed D. ACC play should be a rude awakening especially on the road for the dukie's.
Okaaaaaay well we will see. Duke is going to have off games too, good to see fight and finding ways to get it done.
What stats are even remotely accurate 10 games in. Plus against awful competition
Umm they have only beaten 1 decent team NEB, might be a tad overrated. Lets see them beat a real team before we anoint them a really good team. They looked like garbage on offensive and unforced errors and questionable shots without Zion in there they don't go inside. Be honest look at their schedule so far and tell e they won't lose 10 games this year. They have played no one before tonight unless you count NEB. Which is a solid team, but not great.
It’s about the plays at the end of the game and knowing when to kick it out so yes he learned a lot
Trash refs trying their best to take Zion out the game.
Ball hog and will be the demise of this team making a deep run in the NCAA tourney!
Dude, your team is totally legit. You know it and anyone with a brain knows it.
Our 2015 team had six really close calls before losing to Wisconsin. Uh, including a miraculous win against Notre Dame in the regional finals.
My point is, I wouldn’t worry about what some dipshits on our message board say about your team. If I were you, I would take the high road. Your team has serious swagger. That doesn’t mean you’re going to win the title though.
March is all that matters. It’s all a crapshoot at that point. Kansas, Gonzaga, UNC,Tennessee, and Michigan are all totally legit also. Again, take the high road and not come on opposing teams boards and talk trash.

So he learned to hit the open guy? I knew that in middle school. Progress. The 99' Duke team would destroy this team. I'm still trying to figure out how they lost to UCONN. Duke might win a championship, but don't expect us to perform fellatio on your boys like Vitale does.
Nope. Double down on my bet at halftime when the spread shrunk to 5.5 and let nature take its course.
This is as bad as Duke will look.
TT looked like trash and pushed your almighty team. They have beaten NEB you said it before the game not to get too worried that they weren't that good and dook was up to an 11 point favorite. I bet during that game you were worried.
Defensively, they are really good. Best defensive team I;ve seen sans Michigan. Offensively, they did struggle. But Duke isn't chopped liver defensively, either. Really good may have been a tad much. But nonetheless, they're a good basketball team. Especially so defensively.
He should not be doing anything other than that, given, a) he's on a Kentucky board, b) he, like everyone here has no impact on the outcome of these games, and c) has no ties to them, other than supposedly rooting for them since 1986 (he has no ties to any of his teams that roots for). Duke is great, but don't expect us to fawn over them as much as the Duke board fawns over UNC.
